Calif. pledges better mobile privacy disclosures

§ February 27th, 2012 § Filed under hail § Tagged § No Comments

(AP) ? Mobile applications seeking to collect personal information will have to forewarn users as part of an agreement reached in California.

The guidelines announced Wednesday by California Attorney General Kamala Harris are designed to protect consumers who don’t realize that some applications are pulling potentially sensitive data from their smartphones and computer tablets.

Harris says mobile apps that will keep users’ personal information will have to spell out their intentions in privacy policies that potential users must see before the apps can be installed on a device.

Six of the mobile computing market’s most powerful companies have agreed to set up ways to post the privacy policies in online app stores. The cooperating companies are Google, Apple, Amazon.com Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard and BlackBerry maker Research in Motion Ltd.

Drowning in a sea of misinformation

This time last year two of the museum storerooms flooded. A loose pipe meant that when the mains water supply was switched on in the floor above, high pressure water jetted into our space, soaking the cabinets that contained some 40,000 of the museum’s objects.

To add to our frustration, the storerooms had only been built a few months earlier. It had taken us two months to install the collection, carefully replacing the specimens’ old locations with their new ones in our database so that nothing would be lost. It took two hours to evacuate all the specimens, and there was no time to document them in our frantic rush to get them to dry land. In this flood, the animals certainly went in far greater numbers than two by two.

In September, the collection was returned to the storerooms and this week we have recruited a new documentation assistant to try and sort out the mess. It has taken this long to sort out the insurance claim, not because of the damage to the specimens (thankfully, most made it out relatively undamaged) but because most of what we lost was information, which is hard to put a price on. If a specimen isn’t labelled but appears on the database with a location (for example, there is a disarticulated tiger skeleton on Shelf 16), it can be found. Once it is taken off Shelf 16, like in the flood, it effectively ceases to exist as it cannot be matched.

It is probably true to say that every function of a museum relies on its documentation. Documentation is the information museums keep about their objects – what they are, where they were collected and on which shelf in the museum they now live. Without that information, collections can’t be used very efficiently. Having said that, there probably isn’t a single sizeable natural history museum in the country which could list every object in its collection. That isn’t that surprising when you think how time consuming documentation is, and how, historically, museums acquired specimens much faster than they could catalogue them.

Some of the specimens affected by the flood were well documented – they had already been fully “accessioned” into the museum. This means that they appear in our register with an approved specimen number; they are labelled; they have an entry on our electronic database outlining at least an ID, description and storage location; and this is also recorded on a paper document in the event that computers all fail one day. But many were not.

The new documentation assistant will have to match 40,000 randomly arranged specimens to any documentation that does exist, and put it back in the right location so we can find it and use it. This is no small task.

Lack of documentation is one thing, but incorrect documentation is not unusual either. Just this week, as I was checking the condition of an opossum skull before it went out on loan, I realised that its tooth count didn’t match what an opossum should have. On closer inspection I identified it as a quoll (an Australian marsupial a bit like a mongoose). I went to our opossum storage area to find a different specimen to loan and discovered a further two misidentified “opossums” – one was another quoll and one was a genet (which isn’t even a marsupial!) It was just another reminder that even academic depositories of knowledge like museums get it wrong sometimes.

A few years ago, UCL Museums, of which the Grant Museum is one, ran a project called “Object Retrieval” with the artist Joshua Sofaer. The idea was to document a single object as thoroughly as possible. Aboard a bus parked on campus, a rolling team of researchers worked for 24 hours a day for seven days, assisted by hundreds of members of the public, to find out every conceivable piece of information about one object from the UCL collections. The object was a toy car with its lead paint licked off, implicating it in the lead poisoning of a child.

At the end of the project, armed with this overload of documentation, Joshua argued that we no longer needed to keep the car, as there was no more to learn from it. It had been biologically and chemically sampled, X-rayed, electron micrographed and considered from every artistic angle, and therefore the new documentation had replaced the object’s potential use.

It is an interesting thought – if we ever had the resources to retrieve every piece of information we could from our collections, would museums need to keep their objects for anything other than display?

This isn’t a question we’ll be debating in the staff room anytime soon – assuming our technological development isn’t slowing down, the “objects” would quickly become obsolete, stuck in the era in which they were documented. After all, when most of our specimens were collected no-one had heard of DNA, but now genetic analysis is a major part of museum research, as is isotope analysis and CT scanning. Who knows what questions future scientists will conceive of to ask of our objects? But in any case, if I didn’t get to work with real, amazing natural objects each day, I’d probably look for another job.

Using PLR Content to Grow Profits ? ArticlesOffer.com

§ June 17th, 2011 § Filed under hail § Tagged , , § No Comments

Use PLR content as blog posts, for a cost friendly method of using it. It?s quite possible to use PLR content as fuel for blogs and to provide more regular update for your readers. Just remember that it?s important to include a few of your own ideas as well to make the content truly your own and unique. This step is important because a blog is all about individuality, without which it won?t be possible to build a brand out of it. You should never use PLR unaltered as the sole source of content for your blog posts but use it to generate ideas and spark your own creative writing.

Yahoo! Answers can be used to drive traffic and build credibility for you and your site. There are all kinds of people asking questions in your niche that you can answer. PLR content is a good tool to not only answer their questions but also provide additional, but related, information of value. For even better results, make sure you modify the results so that they are specific to the questions being asked ? when you do this the reward will be a major increase in traffic to your website.

Another great way to use your PLR content is to reward your loyal subscribers by creating a free report with it. Nowadays, there is a sort of an information overload on the web, which is the cause of confusion for many people. Your e-course can be used to give your audience bite-sized bits of information one small lesson at a time so that they have plenty of time to absorb the information in pieces (not to mention great reasons to come back for the next few weeks). If you?re really ready to get to work, now is a great time to consider breaking down a PLR eBook into many smaller lessons or reports that you can send to your subscribers. This report could prove to be helpful to your subscribers to whom you can give it away for free. Then again you could just sell these small reports for around $7. This way you?ll not only make sales on the frontend, but you?ll also end up building your own customer list.

Finally, reach out into other markets by translating the PLR into different languages and selling it in eBook formats. This is a great ?outside the box? way of thinking that will lead to more profit from your PLR content. Popular languages like French and German are excellent targets for this purpose. Be new and daring with your PLR content as this is what will make you stand out from the competition. You need to use PLR in an effective manner if you really want to grow your online business. These ideas are fairly simple to implement so use them well.
